A subset of platinum-containing chemotherapeutic agents kills cells by inducing ribosome biogenesis stress

…, Y Liu, GY Park, J Murai, CE Koch, TJ Eisen… - Nature medicine, 2017 - nature.com
Cisplatin and its platinum analogs, carboplatin and oxaliplatin, are some of the most widely
used cancer chemotherapeutics. Although cisplatin and carboplatin are used primarily in …

[PDF][PDF] The dynamics of cytoplasmic mRNA metabolism

TJ Eisen, SW Eichhorn, AO Subtelny, KS Lin… - Molecular cell, 2020 - cell.com
For all but a few mRNAs, the dynamics of metabolism are unknown. Here, we developed an
experimental and analytical framework for examining these dynamics for mRNAs from …

Nanomolar inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 infection by an unmodified peptide targeting the prehairpin intermediate of the spike protein

…, S Muratcioglu, TJ Eisen… - Proceedings of the …, 2022 - National Acad Sciences
Variants of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) challenge

[PDF][PDF] MicroRNAs cause accelerated decay of short-tailed target mRNAs

TJ Eisen, SW Eichhorn, AO Subtelny, DP Bartel - Molecular Cell, 2020 - cell.com
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) specify the recruitment of deadenylases to mRNA targets. Despite this
recruitment, we find that miRNAs have almost no effect on steady-state poly(A)-tail lengths …

The interplay between translational efficiency, poly (A) tails, microRNAs, and neuronal activation

TJ Eisen, JJ Li, DP Bartel - RNA, 2022 - rnajournal.cshlp.org
Neurons provide a rich setting for studying post-transcriptional control. Here, we investigate
the landscape of translational control in neurons and search for mRNA features that explain …

Stimulation of the catalytic activity of the tyrosine kinase Btk by the adaptor protein Grb2

LM Nocka, TJ Eisen, AT Iavarone, JT Groves, J Kuriyan - Elife, 2023 - elifesciences.org
The Tec-family kinase Btk contains a lipid-binding Pleckstrin homology and Tec homology (PH-TH)
module connected by a proline-rich linker to a ‘Src module’, an SH3-SH2-kinase unit …

[HTML][HTML] Affinity inequality among serum antibodies that originate in lymphoid germinal centers

…, TJ Eisen, EA Eisen, AK Chakraborty, HN Eisen - PLoS …, 2015 - journals.plos.org
… To shed light on this issue, we have taken advantage of previously published data from
Eisen and Siskind (1964). Using the ratio of the strongest to the weakest binding subsets as a …

Conditional Requirement for Dimerization of the Membrane-Binding Module of BTK

TJ Eisen, S Ghaffari-Kashani, JT Groves, A Weiss… - bioRxiv, 2023 - biorxiv.org
Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) is a major drug target in immune cells. The membrane-binding
pleckstrin-homology and tec-homology (PH–TH) domains of BTK are required for signaling…

[PDF][PDF] Persistent activation of mRNA translation by transient Hsp90 inhibition

P Tsvetkov, TJ Eisen, SU Heinrich, Z Brune, E Hallacli… - Cell reports, 2020 - cell.com
The heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) chaperone functions as a protein-folding buffer and plays
a role promoting the evolution of new heritable traits. To better understand how Hsp90 can …

[PDF][PDF] Drug discovery targeting SARS-CoV-2 membrane fusion

…, S Couoh-Cardel, S Muratcioglu, TJ Eisen… - Biophysical …, 2023 - cell.com
SARS-CoV-2 infect hosts by membrane fusion, a process where the virus membrane and
host membrane merge together to allow the viral genetic material to enter the host cell. The …
